Torsion-free connections with prescribed curvature
Abstract
Abstract We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a map S : U → K (𝔤) to arise from the curvature tensor of a torsion-free connection on a sufficiently small neighborhood by using a suitable power series approach. This torsion-free connection is uniquely given. The curvature map S is used to effectively compute the holonomy of this connection.
